Here is the DCX release info on AE:
>
> DVD geographic database discs:
> The same DVD discs are used for the "REC" series navigation radios as
> well as the older "RB1" models. Each unit has unique firmware and

> The 5064033AE version was released on September 15, 2006 and contains
> significant increases in the map data section and new subdivisions. The "AE"
> disc also automatically updates the firmware the first time it is loaded.
> Exact firmware changes have not been confirmed yet. This disc contains
> 7.59 GB of data.

> Note: Effective with version 5064033AE, discs are no longer backwards
